Comment #1 on issue 3646 by [email protected]: Weird solution of x**y = 0
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=3646

That's because of the indeterminate form 0**inf, I think. That will happen if y is 0. Also, this may be because of the way the result is evaluated symbolically.

I believe the result returned is correct because we have not explicitly mentioned anywhere that y is non zero.

But then again, if we do mention that y is indeed non zero,

y = Symbol('y', nonzero=True)
solve(x**y)
[{x: 0**(1/y)}]

So, SymPy is returning the wrong result even when y is zero.

Anyway, I'll take a look into this.
